Senior communications counsel for
cybersecurity, AI and infrastructure.
I’m Alan Wallace. I’m a senior communications consultant to cybersecurity, AI and data center companies. Clients bring me in for ongoing work or for one project: a threat research launch, a breach or incident, or an executive who has to explain something hard.
Discuss your prioritiesWHAT DOES PRESSCONTACT DO?Make complex technology easier to understand.
I help teams turn products, research and incidents into clear positioning, media narratives and executive communications. The work can be a launch, a crisis response or a focused assignment.

RESECURITY / MEDIA RESULTIn October 2026, I ran media for Resecurity, one of the research partners in Microsoft’s takedown of YAM Store, CoGUI and Iron Man. The three services sold scammers fake accounts, phishing sites and impersonation templates. Since January 2026, they enabled more than 1 billion malicious messages. In the first 48 hours, 25 stories ran. 21 named Resecurity, and 14 credited its research by name.
Find the point.
Prove it. Make it travel.
I turn complex products, research and incidents into a defensible story - then help carry it to the people who need to understand it.
